well finally,....
i joined the ranks of X owners this weekend, traded in my 03 ww for 08 rr.
1211 mile trip
bought it used at Pearson Mitsu in Richmond. Post here if you know the vehicle history.
overall i am pleased with transaction, vehicle seems not to have any issues that have been reported (notchy gears, stalling at idle, loss of power at 5000rpms)
here is a few pics
already put on cable shifter bushings from works and turbo inlet pipe from cobb.
and winter tires, especially with a snowstorm coming to MA/NH tomorrow.
